The comedy legend, renowned broadcaster, actor, and mental health campaigner announced her stage return while currently charming viewers as a contestant on I’m a Celebrity…Get Me Out of Here!
The show, scheduled for Sunday, April 12, 2026, at Richmond Theatre, promises to showcase Ruby’s uniquely “provocative, hilariously abrasive, and incomparable style.”
She will be accompanied by her long-time collaborator Clive Tulloh to review clips from their past shows and share scandalous stories.
The 2026 tour will kick off in Henley-on-Thames on March 25 and the Spring leg will draw to a close in Bristol on July 7.
Ruby said: “It’s Ruby here – yes, broadcasting live from the jungle, where the Wi-Fi is powered by mosquitoes and my only beauty routine is ‘don’t get eaten.’
“But fear not!
“The moment I escape, I’m heading straight back on the road and can’t wait to see you all there.”
Tickets will be available from Friday, November 28, at rubywax.net/livetour.
The renowned comedian, actress, and mental health advocate has been delighting her fellow contestants Down Under with tales from her hit TV shows, Ruby Wax Meets and Full Wax.
